How to Make Your Straw Phonation in Water Device (Your "Bubbler")
I was able to find rolls of tube of different diameters at a local hardware store where you pay by the meter. You can also find rolls online. There are many websites now selling pre-made devices, though it’s much cheaper to make your own.
- Silicone or vinyl or teflon tube length: 14″ to 17″, or 35cm to 45cm.
- Tube diameter: An outside diameter of 3/8″ (10mm) and an inside diameter of 5/16″ (8mm). It’s okay to use tubing slightly larger or small.
- Water height: About 1 1/2″ to 3″ (4cm to 7cm), with the sweet spot about 2″ (5cm). You can vary the water height for different training objectives.
Possible Options for Silicone Tubing at Amazon.com
These aren’t affilate links! I searched Amazon and this is what turned up. I haven’t purchased any of them. I live in south Brazil.
It’s okay to buy more than you need. They’re inexpensive. I keep one in the car and one in the house. I’ve built them for friends. They make great presents.
